Gather Ingredients for Garlic Butter Pull Apart Bread
- Buttermilk biscuits - This is the straightforward shortcut to delicious Garlic Butter Pull Apart Bread. I used the Pillsbury brand but any brand will do. Use whichever you prefer.
- Unsalted butter - The base for the Garlic Butter.
- Garlic, minced - The difference between fresh garlic and minced is immense. I used fresh garlic because the flavor is stronger and it tastes better. Minced garlic is convenient and works in a pinch but since I've saved time with the can of premade biscuits, I went with fresh garlic.
- Italian seasoning - This is a flavorful blend of herbs that includes basil, oregano, rosemary, and thyme.
- Garlic powder (optional) - To enhance the garlicky flavor even more!
- Parmesan cheese, grated - Mozzarella would be a great option too for cheesy bread.
How to Make Garlic Butter Pull Apart Bread
First, preheat the oven to 350 degrees. While the oven is warming up, cut the biscuits into four pieces, once down the middle then turn it and cut it directly down the middle again.
Next add a stick of butter, minced garlic, Italian seasoning, and garlic powder to a small bowl. Microwave in 30-second increments until the butter is melted. Spray a baking dish with non-stick cooking spray. Place the cut biscuits into the dish. Try to place them in one even layer.
Now comes the fun part! Drizzle the butter all over the biscuits, ensuring you cover each piece with butter. Sprinkle the parmesan cheese over the top. Bake in the oven until golden brown, about 15-20 minutes.
Finally, serve this fresh out of the oven for the best results!
What to eat with the Garlic Bread?
Garlic Butter Pull Apart Bread works for any situation! I've used this as a starter while hosting dinner during the holiday season. While everything else is finishing up, guests can enjoy this as an appetizer.
It also works well as a party food for any celebration or gathering. Add a marinara or alfredo dipping sauce to serve right along with it.
Of course, it pairs especially well with tomato-based pasta dishes like Beef Ragu Lasagna and Cheesy Baked Spaghetti. Pull apart bread would taste good alongside Hot Honey Lemon Pepper Wings or Herb Butter Cornish Hens, too.

I used a pie dish for this recipe but I've also made it using a square 8x8 baking dish as well.
